You can always bypass TrackerControl for certain apps, by disabling blocking from the main menu for specific apps. Can you provide more info on how the app fails? Maybe, all requests to Google are just blocked. I tried to check that, but could not find the issue.Currently, there's no UI, but you can "Export as CSV" from menu on the app details screen. This even supports blocking lists from AdAway, at the expense of fine-grained attribution to apps. TrackerControl alternatively offers blocking of DNS requests, as described above in (2.).TrackerControl uses IP-based filtering, translating all IP communications into domain names, and then checking against the tracker database in (1.). There are two ways to block communications to tracker domains, either based on IP addresses (which allows for easy association with the responsible app), or based on DNS requests / domains (which saves energy but makes attribution to apps more difficult).This will allow for better blocking, and for disclosing the nature of tracking, such as advertising or analytics. Since this is mostly relevant for research purposes, I will soon switch to the Disconnect tracker list, also used in Firefox.
